All Old Soldiers Much Agitatcd-Drum
Rather Too Previous.
WASHINGTON CITY, June 16.-The ex-
Union soldier element Democrats and Re-
publicans alike, is greatly agitated over the
order issued to return the southern states
the Confederate battle flags captured in the
late war. There are 545 flags to turn over
of which 2GO are are ready with histories pre-
pared There are others not yet fully identi-
fed, and also 23e Union flags recaptured from
the enemy, the disposition of which is not do
termined. The point is made, aside from the
patriotic view, that these flags are the prop
erty of the government, and their surrender
without the consent of congress is without au-
thority. Many Democrats admit that great
mistake has been made in this matter, and
think that the ex-soldiers throughout the
country will resent the action taken.
There is some some reason to suspect that
Adjutant General Drum has been little too
previous The president has made no order
in the case, and really has not given the sub.
ject any consideration, though the letter sent
by Drum to some of the southern governors
would give the impression that he had Gre
fully considered the proposition in the form
in which Gen. Drum put it in the letters to
the governors of Virginia and Texas The
suggestion was made to the president that
there were lot of old flags in the garnet of
the war department that various states and
organizations had asked to have returned to
them, and he was asked il he were willing to
have them returned, and he responded in the
affirmative. 1t is very doubtful il he under
stood that it was proposed to return to the
southern states the Confederate battle flags
captured by federal troops.

1t is very amusing to watch the Eng
take the most intense interest in the trip
of the Deadwood stage, and every day
there are more than enough who volun-
teer from the spectators to fill it and take
the "perilous ride in the midst of the
hostile Indians. The riding of the ugly
little mustangs is something that is so
different from anything they have seen
or heard OF that their enthusiasm over
that is very great. They seem, too, to
have great admiration for Mr.. Cody,
and watch him closely in everything lie
does. The riding of the girls they do not
care much for, as there is nothing in that
which is particularly unlike the riding of
plenty of English girls.
After the show is over the greater part
of the audience make grand rush for
the tents, and they stand and look into
them by the hour. II seems TO be the
height of bliss to tho young English Eel.
lows il they can get up enough of an ac-
quaintance with any of the Mexicans or
cowboys to Ike invited into their tents to
sit and smoke The look of extreme sat-
isfaction on these simple youths faces is
study. English people all seem to have
perfect mania for getting acquainted
with any one that has reputation that
makes him prominent. It-seems to give
them the greatest pleasure to lie able to-
say that they know a person who is ~"
torious in some way for some thing, no.
matter what.
The greater part of the English girls,
too, seem perfectly delighted If they can
get an introduction to the great, clumsy
Buck Taylor, the cowboy, or TO Red Shirt.
and have an opportunity to talk with
them. ! mention these two because they
